# net.inet6.ip6.stats Plugin: freebsd.plugin Module: net.inet6.ip6.stats ## Overview Collect information abou IPv6 stats. The plugin calls `sysctl` function to collect necessary data. This collector is supported on all platforms. This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances. ### Default Behavior #### Auto-Detection This integration doesn't support auto-detection. #### Limits The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection. #### Performance Impact The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system. ## Metrics Metrics grouped by *scope*. The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels. ### Per net.inet6.ip6.stats instance These metrics show general information about IPv6 connections. This scope has no labels. Metrics: | Metric | Dimensions | Unit | |:------|:----------|:----| | ipv6.packets | received, sent, forwarded, delivers | packets/s | | ipv6.fragsout | ok, failed, all | packets/s | | ipv6.fragsin | ok, failed, timeout, all | packets/s | | ipv6.errors | InDiscards, OutDiscards, InHdrErrors, InAddrErrors, InTruncatedPkts, InNoRoutes, OutNoRoutes | packets/s | ## Alerts There are no alerts configured by default for this integration. ## Setup ### Prerequisites No action required. ### Configuration #### File The configuration file name for this integration is `netdata.conf`. Configuration for this specific integration is located in the `[plugin:freebsd:net.inet6.ip6.stats]` section within that file. The file format is a modified INI syntax. The general structure is: ```ini [section1] option1 = some value option2 = some other value [section2] option3 = some third value ``` You can edit the configuration file using the [`edit-config`](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md#edit-a-configuration-file-using-edit-config) script from the Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md#the-netdata-config-directory). ```bash cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata sudo ./edit-config netdata.conf ``` #### Options
Config options | Name | Description | Default | Required | |:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:| | ipv6 packets | Enable or disable ipv6 packet metric. | auto | no | | ipv6 fragments sent | Enable or disable ipv6 fragments sent metric. | auto | no | | ipv6 fragments assembly | Enable or disable ipv6 fragments assembly metric. | auto | no | | ipv6 errors | Enable or disable ipv6 errors metric. | auto | no |
